SIGforum is rough. They don't get into flame wars over there because the site admin., Parabellum, bans people instead of warning them. He's ruthless. I feel like George Costanza trying to ask for bread from the Soup Nazi over there. I use that site for straightforward gun Q&A only, no commentary on anything else.

This is a really good car...much better for my current lifestyle than the Porsche I used to have...a lot less trouble, drives out faster, gets better mileage, and is a fun & easy driver. Faster in the twisties than a well set up 944.
No more PCA, R Gruppe, or early S registry for me. Glad to be shed of 'em! Now let the hate filled posts begin!

Most Bullitt owners were smart enough to order "spoiler delete"...
But I did have a local who owned a GT telling me I should stripe & spoiler it...he was serious. That's it tho...a whale tale. Lord knows how many times I'd cringe seeing one of those on an early 911... Be careful here oddjob. Oh wait, I'm NOT an attorney..lol!

"YOU CANT RACE A CAB."

most of 98% of the time on here and elsewhere its for a laugh pure and simple.
1% of the time its for info regarding a project. and finally 1% is just when its too damn hot or rainy outside and i have already cleaned (2) safes full of spoons and am TOTALLY BORED! i cant count how many times someone local here gets a p-car and "tricks" it all out and shows up at the track like hes steve mcqueen, sans GULF windbreaker and ascot. same goes for other forums. marlinforums is about as hillbilly as ya can get somedays. m-14 forum if ya dont have a walnut stocked USGI ISSUE m-14 you are POO or if you didnt serve in the "NAM" yer poo. hkforum everyone there has each and every proof marking ever stamped on any HK memorized. offshoreonly has miss geico and all the "geico groupies" and a battle btwn brand names like you wouldnt believe. my fountain has BIGGER CLEATS than yer DONZI and so on and so on........................ but with any forum it all comes down to when(if ever) they take the vehicle or the boat out to race, and ya really get to hear the stories grow by the second. go to the vintage bike forums and you have none stop "experiments gone wayyy wrong" such as can i put a honda SL-125 engine in a suzuki TM-400 cyclone frame type of banter back and forth. yep for the most part.................its 24/7/365 laughs. i'll bet cha wish ya can be HOT LIKE ME! LOL!

Shrek, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Lopez were all having lunch together.
Shrek said, "I have always thought that I'm the strongest man in the world, but how can I be sure?" Brad Pitt said, "I'm pretty sure I'm the hottest man alive but I've never had it confirmed." Jennifer Lopez agreed. "I'm told I'm the sexiest of them all, but sometimes I wonder." They all decided that the best way to find out if their beliefs were true was to approach the wicked Queen's mirror to confirm for them whether Shrek was the strongest, Brad Pitt was the hottest and Jennifer Lopez was the sexiest. They agreed to meet again the next day for lunch to discuss their findings. The next day Shrek walked up with a smile. "Well, it's true. The mirror told me that I am the strongest man in the world!" Jennifer Lopez followed and boasted, "It is true, it has been confirmed, I am the sexiest of them all!!" Brad Pitt walked in, head bent, almost with tears in his eyes, and asked, "Who in the world is ODDJOB UNO???????

Two guys were sitting at a bar on top of a skyscraper.
One starts up a conversation and says, did you know there's an updraft right here that is so strong this time of day that you can actually float? the other guy isn't buying it. the first guy says, no, it's true. Watch! He jumps off the edge of the building, falls a few feet, then floats back up and just hovers there. After a little while he gently steps back onto the building. the other guy is amazed and has to try it. He steps off, and plummets countless stories to a very ugly death. The bartender looks at the first guy and says, " you really are an arse hole when you drink, superman". |

Anonymity is the key. I wouldn't (or try not to) type anything here I wouldn't say to that person's face. I travel a lot and I've met a bunch of really nice Pelicans. Can't think of one less than great experience.

I've frequented quite a few board over the last 7 years, this one the most. You can see I'm not a "regular" by my post count on here, but this board is by far the most civil of all that I've been on.
The most entertaining would be the powerboat forums, the most awkward are the Bimmer forums (huge identity crisis). I have always kept the comments as if I were standing next to the person or people that I was directing the comment to. Funny how the forums have a way of bringing out the best/worst of a person. I've done quite a bit of research regarding business acquantances and customers and found them on boards saying the strangest things. |
